    Is it just me or what? I can't get enough of these old beauties. I know they were some rough riding ole hunks of metal, but they have that look. Just like car's and pickups. Different makes and models had their own style and looks. Today, everything looks the same. You can't replace those styles and distinct looks of old iron. Keep them picture's coming. I'll keep watching.

      O-H-I-O Porter greetings.🇺🇸 I’m with you! I grew up around many of these old trucks & can sure appreciate them. They had lots of style & pizazz! I think the only thing they lacked was big power! There were some trucks I didn’t like as much…mainly due to the fact that they were Rust Buckets. Really, that was after they had been used, abused & never cleaned by the time I saw them. I always liked the body styles of the IH Loadstar, but they were notorious for fenders & cabs rusting so badly. Good stuff! 🥰😎✌️

    It always makes my day to see there images. My imagination hits the road with every one of them. The Knights of the Road were my heros. Got my CDL in '72 and appreciated the improvments in equipment over the years. But I still love that old iron!

    Shift it down into “creeper gear” for those long steep hills. My dad would put a brick on the excelerator, stand on the running board and steer on those steep inclines. Those were the days.😅

    When I first started driving in 1981 everybody was driving cab overs. I was in that transition period when length laws for trailers went from 45' to 48' and beyond 😂

    That’s back in the day when Truckers weren’t throttle jockeys. They had respect for each other & the rules of the road. Most people respected them as professionals.

    Innovative though. Today that type of tent is sold to the Off roaders.
